Where is the little blinker that both turn signals use to make them blink on and off. In a car it's under the dash and makes a noise when you turn on the turn signal. I found a little box that make a high pitched beep when 12v is applied across it (blinker reminder). But if I can keep from pulling the seat to find the power cords, I am hoping the actual blinker is in short range of the side of the frame under the seat so that I can reach it and pull it out without taking the seat off. With the mods to the seat it is a b.... to get it back on (too much lift in the middle I think).

The sound this makes is like a higher pitched keyer side tone (ham radio talk). I took it apart to see if I could slip a potentiometer into the circuit but it is shrink wrapped and glued down around a tiny speaker. Our code practice machines are simple circuits that beep when power is applied (like a cw/morse code key closing 9v or 12v across the circuit). The tone is adjusted with a potentiometer (variable resistance pot). I guess this is a fixed resistor so that the vibration under the seat doesn't cause it to change tones.
I have a horrible time in the day time remembering to turn the signal off. At night I see the blinker light on the tank, but in the daytime....
I'm on the S40 2005 so it is slightly different than the older bikes.
And I didn't see a trip odometer in the 2006. Wish they offered a retro fit in the speedomaeter, as I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
